More Military Waivers for Ex-Cons

The Army admitted about one-fourth more recruits last year with a record of legal problems ranging from felony convictions and serious misdemeanors to drug crimes and traffic offenses, as pressure to increase the size of U.S. ground forces led the military to grant more waivers for criminal conduct, according to new data released yesterday.




Hey, if ex-cons are good enough for the Bush administration, they’re good enough for the army.
You best me to it, s.o.y. — If felons are good enough to run the country, they should be good enough to serve in the military.
I seem to remember that keeping such ‘undesirables’ out of the military was a big selling point for the ‘all volunteer army.’
